2016 Paralympic poem

2016 Paralympic Poem - Channel4

As part of this collaboration with Fulwell73, the production company behind The Late, Late Show with James Corden, I integrated graphics and visual effects, which brought Corden’s recital of Eddie Butler’s original poem to life.

Written by broadcaster Eddie Butler, the poem references the very beginnings of the Paralympic Games at Stoke Mandeville in 1948 and its growth over the years. The poem then takes a nostalgic look back at the 2012 Paralympic Games in London and revisits some of the highlights such as the gold medal moments of Ellie Simmonds, David Weir and Hannah Cockcroft.

‘Welcome to Rio takes in the historical roots of the Paralympic Games, recalls how events unfolded in London before turning its attention to the anticipation the Rio Paralympics and the nation’s hopes for Britain’s Paralympian's. The short film is based on the concept that Britain’s athletes are gathering backstage before they step onto the world stage of the Rio Paralympics to take part in the epic sporting event.’
